Valve actuation module 204 activates closure 112,114 based on valve control signal.The position of closure 112,114 is adjusted to be provided for enabling the intake temperature of HCCI pattern.For example, can close first segment valve 112, pass through the first air duct 214 with forced air induction.Air inlet can be heated by heat exchanger 110.Can open second section valve 114, with via the second air duct 216 by inlet guide in intake manifold 124.Can regulate first segment valve 112 and second section valve 114 to make the temperature of the air inlet that enters intake manifold 124 be made as the predetermined temperature for enabling HCCI pattern.
Pattern is enabled module 206 receiving mode signal and temperature signals, and enables HCCI pattern based on mode signal and temperature signal.For example,, in the time of mode signal instruction HCCI pattern and in the time that temperature signal is more than or equal to predetermined temperature, motor 102 can move under HCCI pattern.
In Fig. 3, illustrate that the inlet stream of control engine is to enable the method for HCCI pattern.Although mainly described following steps with reference to the embodiment of Fig. 1-2, can revise these steps, to be applied to other embodiments of the invention.The control of the air inlet control module 108 of for example Fig. 1 of control module can be carried out following steps.
The method can start in step 300.In step 302, pattern is enabled module 206 can enable SI pattern at first, and SI pattern can be the default mode of motor 102.In step 304, valve actuation module 204 can regulate first segment valve 112 to the position of partly opening at first, and regulates second section valve 114 to the position of partly closing.This makes air inlet be inhaled in intake manifold 124 by the first air inlet path 215 and the second air inlet path 217, thereby provides predetermined temperature and air rate for enabling of HCCI pattern.
In step 306, mode decision module 200 receives from the engine speed signal RPM of engine speed sensor 140 with from the MAF signal AirFlow of maf sensor 122.Engine load signal LOAD can produce based on MAF signal AirFlow.
In step 308, in the time that engine speed signal RPM is in the first prespecified range, control can advance to step 310, can turn back to step 306 otherwise control.In step 310, in the time that engine load signal LOAD is in the second prespecified range, control can advance to step 312, can turn back to step 306 otherwise control.Mode decision module 200 judges based on engine speed signal RPM and engine load signal LOAD whether motor 102 can enable HCCI pattern.
In step 312, the mode signal that mode decision module 200 one of produces in instruction SI pattern and HCCI pattern based on engine speed signal RPM and engine load signal LOAD.In the time of mode signal instruction HCCI pattern and in the time that engine temperature is greater than predetermined temperature, enable HCCI pattern.In other words,, although mode signal instruction HCCI pattern, enabling of HCCI pattern is delayed, until the temperature signal of motor 102 is more than or equal to predetermined temperature.Therefore, motor 102 can move under SI pattern, until enable HCCI pattern based on temperature signal.
In step 314, throttle control module 202 can receive temperature signal.Temperature signal can be determined based at least one in engineer coolant temperature signal EngCTemp, intake air temperature signals AirTemp, motor oil temperature signal OilTemp and chamber temperature signal CCTemp.Only for example, temperature signal TEMP can be defined as provided in representation 1.
TEMP=F{EngCTemp, AirTemp, OilTemp, CCTemp} (1) EngCTemp is engineer coolant temperature.AirTemp is intake temperature.OilTemp is motor oil temperature.CCTemp is chamber temperature.
In step 316, in the time that temperature signal is less than predetermined temperature, control can advance to step 318, can advance to step 324 otherwise control.For example, if temperature signal is more than or equal to predetermined temperature and mode signal instruction HCCI pattern, can in the situation that not postponing, enable HCCI pattern for motor 102.In the time that temperature signal is less than predetermined temperature, enabling of HCCI pattern can be delayed.
In step 318, throttle control module 202 receives the first valve position signal VP1 and duaspiracle position signal VP2.Valve position signal VP1, VP2 can receive from the TPS 116,118 of closure 112,114 respectively.Valve position signal VP1, VP2 are corresponding to the position of closure 112,114.
In step 320, throttle control module 202 can produce valve control signal based on mode signal, temperature signal and throttle position signal.Throttle control module 202 is controlled the amount that is inhaled into the amount of the air inlet in intake manifold 124 and is directed into the air inlet of heat exchanger 110.
For example, based on the position of first segment valve 112 and second section valve 114, part or all of air inlet can be conducted through heat exchanger 110.Air inlet can be directed into intake manifold 124 by air inlet path 215,217.Throttle control module 202 can regulate by controlling the position of first segment valve 112 and second section valve 114 the second flow rate of the air in the first flow rate and the second air inlet path 217 of the air in the first air inlet path 215.
The position of first segment valve 112 and second section valve 114 can be set by the function based on engine coolant and intake temperature.Only for example, valve control signal Vctrl can be defined as provided in representation 2.
Vctrl=F{ECT,IAT}(2)
ECT is engineer coolant temperature.IAT is intake temperature.Although in engineer coolant temperature and intake temperature shown in representation 2, valve control signal Vctrl can be for example function of the gentle chamber temperature of engine oil of other engine temperature.
In step 322, valve actuation module 204 receives valve control signal, and produces the first actuated signal and the second actuated signal based on valve control signal.The first actuated signal can be for activating first segment valve 112.The second actuated signal can be for activating second section valve 114.Only for example, first segment valve 112 can be arranged on the position of closing completely, and second section valve 114 can be arranged on the position of opening completely.This makes air sequentially flow through the first air duct 214, heat exchanger 110, the second air duct 216 and second section valve 114.Air inlet is inhaled in intake manifold 124 via air inlet path 215,217.
In addition, valve position signal VP1, the VP2 that closure 112,114 can be based on from TPS 116,118 and opening and closing.Closure 112,114 can partly and/or little by little open and close, thereby provides temperature predetermined or that set with mixed heat air and cool air.Throttle control module 202 receives valve position signal VP1, VP2, and produces valve control signal based on valve position signal VP1, VP2.Valve actuation module 204 receives valve control signal, and changes the valve position of closure 112,114 based on valve control signal.
In step 324, pattern is enabled the inactive SI pattern of module 206, so that motor 102 operates under HCCI pattern.In step 326, pattern is enabled module 206 and is enabled HCCI pattern based on mode signal and temperature signal.In the time that mode signal indicates HCCI pattern and temperature signal to be more than or equal to predetermined temperature, can enable HCCI pattern.
In step 328, valve actuation module 204 can regulate first segment valve 112 and second section valve 114, air inlet is maintained to predetermined temperature and the air rate of the HCCI pattern for being enabled.Air inlet can be inhaled in intake manifold 124 via air inlet path 215,217.Control can finish in step 330.
Above step is exemplary example; These steps can be according to application order ground, synchronously, side by side, continuously, during overlapping time section or carry out with different order.
Broad teachings of the present invention can be implemented with various forms.Therefore, although the present invention includes concrete example, true scope of the present invention should not be limited to this, because other amendment will become apparent to those skilled in the art on the basis of research accompanying drawing, specification and appended claims.
